Residents of Akron contend with invading pests in their homes such as cockroaches, ants, rodents, including mice and rats, crickets, silverfish, ticks, and spiders. The summer weather brings out pests who made their winter home in your walls, attics, and crawlspace. While some of these bugs end up outside, many remain inside.
Orkin Pros go through hours of training and make use of continued education through Orkin TV and podcasts so our Pros become completely familiar with all types of pests in your home. They're fervent learners and understand the behavior of common bugs in Akron.
When it comes to pesky invaders like cockroaches in Akron, homeowners sometimes think bad housekeeping is the cause. But cockroaches may stow away in items brought in your home or make their way in through cracks, drains, or sewer lines. Once they've established themselves in your home, they can contaminate food and food prep surfaces, and cockroach casings and feces can act as a trigger for those prone to allergies and asthma.
Ants are another crawling invader that love your warm house and probably your cooking, but Orkin applies treatments to help stop the ant queens from laying eggs, and then remove the nest.
Rodents carry disease, spread fleas, and contaminate food. Mice may contaminate food and leave hazardous droppings behind. Mice and rats have large teeth that make it very dangerous to try and catch them. Let Orkin send one of our highly-qualified Pros to inspect and treat your home.
Other bugs like crickets and silverfish are generally harmless but quickly move into your home, taking over every room. Light sleepers may regret those cute little crickets when they begin singing at night. Crickets also enjoy chewing on fabrics, paper, and plants. Silverfish have a healthy appetite for paper and fabric too and can get behind wallpaper, inside envelopes, and between pages of books.
Don’t delay in calling on Orkin to help manage the threats from unwanted pests.
